Mortal Kombat X Street Fighter Looking Likely

Posted on Monday, February 13 @ 08:05:52 Eastern by



At the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences Awards, two worlds collided in the form of Capcom's Seth Killian and NetherRealm Studios head and Mortal Kombat co-creator, Ed Boon.

It seems they got to talking, and one thing led to another. Now, there could be a violent, bloody love-child on the way.

Seth Killian tweeted after the show that he had a good time kicking back with Boon, and congratulated him on Mortal Kombat taking home an award. To which Boon replied:
Yes, great catching up with you too. Looking forward to our first MKvsSF meeting. 1st order of business: MKvsSF or SFvsMK. ;)
Boon has always been one to joke and tease, and there's always the possibility that the two sides can't come to agreement. Then there's the parent company and licensing mumbo jumbo nonsense that always seems to get in the way of progress. But damn... would that just be fucking great if my two favorite fighting franchises went head-to-head?

Tell GR: Would you rather see it as MK x SF or SF x MK? Meaning, which engine would you prefer it to be based on? And which franchise do you see coming out on top here? I'm sure you know which my vote goes to.

    From the tournament play I've seen, the SF engine/balance is a hell of a lot deeper than the MK engine/balance. Let Seth build the game, and Ed can make the fatalities.

    It's deep because there's so much crap and people whine about everything, plus it's Japanese.

    I'd probably prefer to see MK vs SF in the MK engine, although SF X T sure is looking pretty.

    I would rather see it using the MK engine. Not only because I prefer mortal kombat, but also to see the less cartoony versions of Street Fighter characters and backrounds. (forget Street FIghter: The Movie ummm...game). Besides, SF already transfered Tekken over to their engine and has pretty much done the same with Marvel vs. Capcom. Would like to see Street FIght taken out of its elemant for once.

    I'd prefer the MK engine. I've never really been a fan of the SF series in general (I hate the half circle control scheme and the graphics are bit too cartoony for my taste).

    Definitely SF vs MK. If they do this game though, I would want to see if you'll see fatalities or if they will puss out and do the MK vs DC thing of...not fatalities. There needs to be fatalities and gore. It's not a true MK game without that.

    This game can't work. If I saw someone uppercut Sakura into a bunch of spikes I would literally start crying.
